My dad died couple months ago and we played this song on his funeral, I finally feel better about the whole situation and bought a gituar to play this song myself as a tribuete to my father. Thank you so much for this video!
My condolences...my dog was old and in a great deal of pain a couple years ago so I had him put to rest. I listened to this song three times on the way back home from the vet...crying the whole time. I also learned the song shortly after that. We had a similar experience and we are connected thru this song! Music is the most beautiful thing! This song has effected us deeply and inspired us to be strong and positive and that is a testament to this song. Your father would be proud! God bless!
Man, Honestly, I'm crying right now. I've always looked for this song, and tried to learn it, but the versions that I Found weren't loyal to the original one, and the good ones were beyond my knowledge. I didn't how how to change the tune of my guitar, nobody teached me that, and only after years playing and learning by myself I figured out how to change the tune to play "the cave" from mumford and sons. Long story short, I felt it was time to retry and I found your video. I tried to tune my guitar and it costed me the B string, but I replaced it and as soon as I played the first two chords, I felt so happy, so grateful, that I couldn't avoid some tears from falling :) Thank you a lot. I will practice until perfection.
Learned this song about 3 years ago but never brave enough to do it live! Having watched your lesson and seen chord names I feel that I understand it now!! Just gotta sing that falsetto! Might take me another 3 years.... but lovely clear lesson... Thank you!
I find that the tuning is easier to follow by tuning all strings to Open C using a tuner (1st and 2nd strings are both C), all except for the 4th string, which is tuned to E (same tuning for the 4th string in Open E tuning). Hoped this helped someone.
Awesome video. Best tutorial i could find and so easy to follow.great song to learn and been wanting too for a while,so thank you! Liked and subscribed 👌🏻
I don't known about you guys, but in Brazil we have a kind of "curse" about the D string.. rsrs... many people agree that she is the most brake one...rsrs... followed by the 1a E... anyway, I thoug about a solution: tune the D string just half tone above (D#), then tune everyone else a half tone below and use a capo on the first fret... actually, can we even not change the tone of the D string at all, and tune everyone else one whole tone below and use the capo on the second fret... then will be like this: E (6nd) -> down to A A (5nd) -> down to F D (cursed one)->STAY the same \o/ G (3nd) -> down to F B (2nd) -> down to A# E (1st) -> down to A Too insane? What you guys think about it? I didn't have the chance to try this yet (I'm away from my guitar/capo).
You mention "The tuning of the guitar though is slightly lower than the notes that I tell you to tune to. That’s why it might sound pretty horrible if you tune to 440 Hz and try to play along to the song.". What frequency is the original song tuned to, do you know? Many automatic tuners today have the option to calibrate/change the frequency :) Here is my favorite take of the original song: th-cam.com/video/sLOr_FrJJWA/w-d-xo.html What frequency do you think is being used? :)
Hey man thx for this tutorial I saved it to my guitar playlist and regret not trying to learn it sooner !! I hope you don’t mind me asking how you did that paw flick or what have you at 6:30 because those first 2 notes are confusing me it doesn’t sound the same on my guitar :( I’d mega appreciate any advice/help you can give ! Thx !!
Update: I finally figured out the paw thing!! but now even tho you’re literally spelling it out for me that chord at 7:35 doesn’t sound right on my guitar (mainly the string on the 8th fret) im emulating the same shape as you on the same frets but for some reason it sounds off idk if you can help me but if you can pls do!! Thk u !
Hi Ry, this is a great lesson - thank you! I'm about to tune my guitar to open C...but my tuner app says open C is (6) CGCGCE, so different to your CGEGCC - a different open C? thanks!
+Yassine Elkassabi Generally I would say don't tune up because of the risk of popping strings. But it's not by very much for the song and if your string gauge isn't too heavy you should be fine.
So I've been trying to get this song down but I just can't seem to do the double stops to sound like you do, I have bronze strings and wonder if that's the reason or if it's because I need more practice could you please help me
I've realized my mistake and I was playing the bottom strings on the double stops lmfao, I'm sorry but thanks for this lesson. Huge fan of bon iver and learning one of my favorite songs is amazing

There is only ONE Bon Iver song I want a tutorial for and that is We Love our Somalis, your BEST work ever, imho.

+Etherium Sky Films & Media You're so very welcome 🙏🏻
when you say the tuning is CGEGCC - does that mean in the order of the strings (1st string tuned to C etc..? )
It's tuning from string 6-1. So low E string is tuned down to C, A down to G etc.
Great tuto!! Keep it up 👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks!
I would like to learn 🎸 it gives my strength
Love your lesson. Hugs from Ukraine!!!
Hugs right back at you! Thanks for the support.
this is my first day on guitar man i love you❤
Good luck dude!
Ry Naylor Guitar thanks u are great :) I can Play this song now :)
Brilliant job, thanks you mate :)
My pleasure!
you are a BOSS
Thanks dude!
Instead of using the X77700 chord, I do X02020 for an easier transition back to the Am @4:40 in the video
your guitar sounds amazing what model is that?
Thanks. It's a Yamaha FPR-300. Discontinued sadly.
Ry Naylor Guitar you think the fg800 would sound anything like this?
I don't known about you guys, but in Brazil we have a kind of "curse" about the D string.. rsrs... many people agree that she is the most brake one...rsrs... followed by the 1a E... anyway, I thoug about a solution:

A (5nd) -> down to F
D (cursed one)->STAY the same \o/
G (3nd) -> down to F
B (2nd) -> down to A#
E (1st) -> down to A
Too insane? What you guys think about it? I didn't have the chance to try this yet (I'm away from my guitar/capo).
thanks
Off hand, any Bon Iver or other's in the same tuning? Thanks for this tutorial, it's helped me start playing again🙏
Not sure, but thanks for stopping by 🙏🏻
Year too late but Zep's Bron-y Aur is in a similar tuning..... Only similar!
Great tutorial! Could you do a tutorial on Slumber by Lewis Watson in open c tuning please?
I'll check it out!
@@Rynaylorguitar Yes!!! :)
Awesome song Man!
+Olavo Gazzola Thanks. It's a classic.
How about the song "Is it all worth it" from Treetop Flyers?, really couldn't find a nice tutorial on that one!
Cheers!

432 hz it seems

Great teaching ... but just broke my strings trying to tune these ):
Oops!
Same
deserve much more views and subscribers..u'll get it anyways ;)
love from india
+Ayush Jasuja Thanks dude, I hope so. Getting comments like yours always helps though 😀
this is so good sadly complicated tuning is needed to play :(( so i cant go to guitar store and play this thats depressing
True, but it’s a lot of fun to play.
accurate transcription but at what point do you play the song without any interruptions?
It's funny when you name the complicated chord and then put the thumbs up..
hahahaha...
keep up the good work sir!
Thanks! I will.
Why don’t my pull offs about 6:30 in sound the same? And the chorus chords? Any ideas let me know
I'm having a hard time playing the fingerpicking parts. Would you mind giving some tips?
What kind of guitar do you have? I love the sound
This is a Yamaha FPX-300. I bought it over 15 years ago and sadly it's discontinued.
Hi Ry, this is a great lesson - thank you! I'm about to tune my guitar to open C...but my tuner app says open C is (6) CGCGCE, so different to your CGEGCC - a different open C? thanks!
managed to tune it as you said and...no strings broken, so all good!
You have to tune down each note in c tuning to get the actual song
Right. It’s a little off.
Do Everyone requires a plan by lumineers
Is it okay to tune up? I got some very modest strings i should say haha! But I would love to learn this song so bad..
+Yassine Elkassabi Generally I would say don't tune up because of the risk of popping strings. But it's not by very much for the song and if your string gauge isn't too heavy you should be fine.
Is Bon Iver playing in 432Hz?
Not really pro in guitar but can this be played on a fender del mar?
+alex gamez Yes 😜
What type of strings does he have?
So I've been trying to get this song down but I just can't seem to do the double stops to sound like you do, I have bronze strings and wonder if that's the reason or if it's because I need more practice could you please help me
I've realized my mistake and I was playing the bottom strings on the double stops lmfao, I'm sorry but thanks for this lesson. Huge fan of bon iver and learning one of my favorite songs is amazing
+alex gamez Pleased to hear you sorted the problem. Good luck with it.
Ry Naylor Guitar sorry for the bother but is there any advice to give me for the double stops
What strings do you use?
Ariel Posen uses an open C tuning a lot.....
can someone help me with the tuning ? what does a whole step mean
It's two frets (a half step is one fret). I'm going to make a tuning video for the song soon.
Check this out - th-cam.com/video/DfbEaVOQAF4/w-d-xo.html
Somehow that F sound wrong.... any experience / hints there
?
+Daniel Bilodeau That's how he plays it dude.
Thanks
is this a piece for beginners?
+Haktan Maya Probably not to be honest. The best way to find out though is to give it a try 😀
How do you play that c
Which one?
You nayldor
I only have a nylon guitar 😭
same. loving that sticky sound of the fingers leaving the high strings.
Sounds like a 12 string!
why do I fucking suck at this?
PleasestandardtuningpleasepleasGoDDammOooTNOOOOOO
Why you saying "tooning"? You're English.
I am not gonna give you a like just because you asking for that all the time. Otherwise good lesson ..thanks heaps!
+Michal Kouba Thanks for the support.
